TOCA Race Driver 3, a game that marked my childhood, is much more than just a simple racing simulator. Its realism, variety of modes, and the sense of immersion it offered made it an unforgettable experience. From the exciting touring car races to the challenging rallies, each mode presented a unique and thrilling world.
The feeling of speed behind the wheel of a DTM car at Hockenheim, the precision required in the rally stages in Finland, or the adrenaline of the GT races at Donington Park, all felt authentic and vibrant. The graphics, for the time, were impressive, and the sound of the engines made you feel like you were inside the car.
But what truly made TOCA Race Driver 3 special was its career mode. The story of Ryan McKane, a driver fighting his way up in the world of motorsports, completely captivated me. Every race, every victory, and every defeat felt personal.
TOCA Race Driver 3 not only taught me about cars and racing but also instilled values such as perseverance, dedication, and the spirit of overcoming challenges. It's a game that I will always remember fondly, and that left an indelible mark on me.
Black Rock Shooter: The GameBlack Rock Shooter: The Game is an action role-playing game and based on the Black Rock Shooter franchise created by Huke. The players take on the role of the eponymous Black Rock Shooter. The game is divided into several missions in which the player must clear objectives to progress. On the main overworld, BRS can explore the available areas and look for certain items. Battles begin when the player comes into contact with an enemy on the overworld. During a battle, BRS can aim and shoot with her rock cannon at enemies, block against attacks, and sidestep to avoid them completely. If the player fires the rock cannon or uses the sidestep too much in a short time, the system will overheat, leaving the player vulnerable to attack until it cools down. Throughout the game, players can earn abilities that can be equipped to BRS and used in battle, each with their own cooldown periods. These include offensive attacks such as a powerful blast, a sniper rifle, or support abilities that can increase BRS' stats such as her attack or defense. Certain sections will also see BRS ride a motorcycle, in which she can attack enemies on either side of her or use weapons to fire in front of enemies.Action
